at national security and all of this lined up. he failed at the three o'clock in the morning phone call, actually 4:30 in the afternoon and failed to deploy before, during and even after, not getting it out. >> sean: he covered up, lied. >> could have made a phone call to a french security company in benghazi and secured that place after words within 12 hours. >> sean: could have thanked george bush, but for the enhanced interrogation there wouldn't have been the courier that led to bin laden. two minutes left, last question, i say we're going to look back on this period of history as through the prism of history and say this was the rise of the radical islamist and to me, it has an eerie similar feeling to the 1930's. >> i would even say the 1950's and the question will be asked, who lost the middle east the same way we asked who lost china in the 1950's, if you now look forward two years from now atlantic ocean to the

africa, middle east. >> sean: the first battle will be against israel and then the west, am i wrong? >> the dynamic. >> the dynamic back on the ground on this world, islamic spremsism and that's the dominant idea. >> it's already happening and there. >> the reality you have an american administration that's actively promoting that, sean. they're doing nothing to stop the rise of the islamists in fact the exact opposite they're promoting them and supporting them. >> the irony of this all of this, the iranians and hezbollahs and shias we could possibly negotiate with them. we'll never be able to negotiate with the taliban, never. >> sean: the geopolitical, when the iranians go to egypt and you could have them-- >> they could come to us ultimately for negotiations, just like nixon's china,

watch. >> sean: very, very volatile. thank you for being with us, appreciate it. >> thank you. >> sean: that' time we have left this evening and we will see you back here soon. thanks for being with us. >> tonight, accusations, they are flying. fox news alert now on the white house decision to cancel tours of the people's house all in the name of budget cuts. >> this is our house, we should be able to go into it. >> it is a shame that because of the sequester, the tours will no longer take place. >> there are probably other things we could be cutting before we cut the white house tour. >> people think this country is falling apart. people think this country is on its last legs. >> i think it's unfortunate that they're using the white house tours as a method to suck more money out of the public. >> people in this country are really scared there is a despondencesy among the population, a majority of the pop sayings. >> democrats talk an awful lot about balance. >> the budget has been delayed because of some of the impediments frankly to formulating a budget. >> where is their plan to

balance the budget. >> the implications of the sequester affects the ability for them to put together the budget proposal. >> the time to get is budget not next week, now. >> greta: and the is the administration trying to make the sequester as painful as possible? a whistle blower park ranger telling foxnews.com that the park supervisors nixed plans to minimize the impact of the cuts on park visitors, instead the ranger says park staff were told to cancel special events and cut services like talks and tours. washington examiner political correspondent byron york joins us, can you tell me a little more about what the park rangers were attempting to do or at least the memo, as we understand it? >> well, they were trying-- they were suggesting there were ways that they could cut, the park service budget without actually affecting visitors and so that would not, you know, a shorten

opening hours or have fewer guides or that sort of thing. and according to this one park service employee, they were told, nope, that you know, we're going to make this-- these cuts very visible and people feel it. it kind of come ports with another e-mail we had earlier this week from the agriculture department in which another employee tried to come up with ways to enact the cuts so it'd be less disruptive, less painful and they were told, he no, we've got to stay in line with the official line in the administration. >> greta: well, it's going to be interesting. it's from the director, jonathan jarvis, apparently, is who wrote this memo, now, what we don't know is whether a command came from farther up the chain or whatever it is, but you know, we don't know and it's simply a whistleblower, is there any sort of innocent explanation for what this director was saying for the national park

service? >> well, there is a differing of opinion, inside the executive branch and as well as certainly with congress about how disruptive the cuts have to be, whether they need to touch the public that much. whether there is enough waste or enough inessential spending in a lot of these agencies that it could be cut without a terrible effect on the public. so, yeah, there's a substantial disagreement inside the government about this. >> all right, you've also written an article, talking about the-- that says in part, the little secret of sequestration, the obama administration could fix much of the problem very quickly. but it doesn't want to. how do you think it could, but it doesn't want to. >> we've heard complaints saying these cuts require across the board cuts that are going to cut everything and it's going to hurt everybody. and the fact is, congress actually tells the executive branch agencies how much money they can spend and how they

should spend it. sometimes the instructions are broad, sometimes they're very detailed and the executive branch has to follow those instructions, but if you have a situation where a cabinet agency wants to spend money in a different way than congress directed, there's a way to do it. you ask congress permission. congress gives you the permission and then the money can be spent differently. in the past week or two, republicans in congress have been begging members. obama administration, please, if you think the cuts are going to be very disruptive and painful, come to us with your suggestions for making these cuts in a different way. we will work with you, please come ask us. darrell issa, the chairman of the government oversight committee in the house sent out a letter to all the cabinet agencies on february 28th. he has not received a single response yet. >> greta: all right. is it routine to ask the agencies to ask congress for a different way to spend the money so that you would expect the secretaries would be aware of this possibility? >> absolutely. it's called reprogramming,

it's done a lot and it's up to the discretion of congress, but the officials do not have a huge amount of flexibility in how they can spend congress, if congress has specifically instructed them to spend this money on this, or this money on that. but they can always go back to congress and say we need to do this differently. and in this case, with an obvious unique case of sequestration, lawmakers have been practically begging them to come do it. you can make this easier, it doesn't have to be so hard. we'll give you permission and they haven't gotten any response from the administration. >> greta: the letter went up february 28th. maybe when they he feelfeel a l more pinch they'll come back to congress, for that-- as far as we know i should add. nancy pelosi taking a swing at house speaker john boehner and taking to youtube to do it. leader pelosi's office releasing this video. >> you look at the final

agreement that we came to in the white house and i got a 98% of what i wanted. i'm pretty happy. i've got a 98% of what i wanted. >> the defense cuts are already having an impact. roughly 700,000 department of defense workers have been put on notice, they were told that would be placed on unpaid leave one day each week, that means they will lose about 20% of their pay. >> i got 98% of what i wanted. >> more than 100 million dollars will be cut from the national cancer institute and could affect nearly 1500 jobs in new york alone. >> i got 98% of what i wanted. >> the weekly standard's steve hayes joins us. that's interesting that this has turned into negative ads. >> that's a funny video by nancy pelosi, reasonably clever to give her and her staff credit for it. the first question you have to ask when you see that is when has nancy pelosi been sort of a stallwart defender of the defense budget? in years past you look at the things she's said. she's been happy to cut the defense budget so it's a little ironic she's

criticizing john boehner for allowing these defense cuts within the context of sequester. >> you know what i find pathetic about the whole thing, the leader pelosi, rather, with this nasty youtube video and any other republicans going around town saying the president wants to inflict pain on americans and go out to dinner and i suspect the taxpayers, but is anyone doing anything? the sequester is because they haven't done anything in the first place and spectators are watching it and then they go out to dinner. >> if you looked at the time that elapsed since the july 21 debate over the debt ceiling and then the super committee and the failure of the supercommittee when the president threatens to veto any attempts to get around the sequester cuts. the sequester cuts at that point he was happy with, he wanted them to be implemented

and we can't consider the cuts. now he claims the same cuts would be calamitous. look, everybody on all sides of this i think has some egg on their face. >> greta: is that egg-- wouldn't they be embarrassed? not just egg, not one of them is sitting there coming up, now, once march 22nd rolls around they're out of town and what they've done, trashing each other leading up to it. >> this was the problem with the the entire sequester process, the entire super committee, from its conception back in july of 2011. anytime you give politicians in washington an opportunity to take an out, however difficult it might seem on the surface, where they're not going be to be blamed directly. >> that was their idea. >> they're-- >> we didn't impose it upon them. -- >> the idea originated from the white house. >> they lied about that and they tried to duck that. >> not honest about that at all. but the republicans embrace that, that's what nancy pelosi was trying to, the point she was trying to make in the

video and john boehner did say i want 98% of what i want and mitch mcconnell's team said, look, this is a pretty good deal we're never going to have to pull the trigger on the sequester, she had everybody in washington agreeing to this because it looked like they were not going to be able to, never going to have to take the blame. >> the indecent part, it's been winning and the other guy's 98% happy and didn't have to pull the trigger. not one said why aren't they sitting at the u.s. capitol right now. not one of them is working on this problems of the american people and everybody else who has a job and goes to its job and does his job and they created the sequester and messed it up. did a terrible job and now what are they doing? they're insulting each otherand 22nd. >> and campaign on it later on down the road. look, i agree with all of that, and i didn't like the whole idea from the very beginning back some two years ago, let me say this though on behalf of where we are now, after the 2010 mid term elections, there was for the

first time in ages, discussions about how members of congress, how people in washington were going to limit the growth of government. we hadn't had those kind of discussions until the november 2010 elections, until the tea party triumphed and in some respects, when you look at everything that's happened even through the president's reelection victory in november of 2012, you could say that the tea party is winning, the tea party brought this issue to the fore, before the november 2010 elections, the discussion and the debate was how fast can we spend this money? and after that, it was we need some cuts and we need some restraints and we're still to this day, here we are in march of 2012, after the president and activist liberal president won reelection, talking about how we're going to restrain the growth, and that's the problems for all the of the blame shifting for the finger pointing, for the irresponsibility, that from my position as a conservative and

libertarian, that's the discussion. >> greta: i don't want the discussion, i'm a little soured on it, i don't see any product. i've heard an awful lot of talk and all they do in the city is send letters to each other and nobody accomplishes anything and the american people are being very disheartened. >> on the process, this is not the way it was supposed to work. if the outcome gives us some limitations on the growth of-- but i'm happy about it, but this is not how it's supposed to work. >> greta: steve, always nice to see you. well, if you work hard just to pay your rent or mortgage you're not going to be happy about this. did you know you're paying $51 million a year to maintain wasted, that means empty spaces in empty courthouses. space not even used. nice to see you, congressman. >> well, good to see you, greta and when we're on the brink of all kinds of financial disaster, the waste

continues and hopefully we're focusing a little bits of attention on some of that. >> greta: all right. now, so you had hearings today to focus the attention on. is that right? >> down here the at miami, yeah. >> greta: or yesterday? >> i'm back again, sort of like a bad lunch i guess coming up on gsa and some of the others, but it seems the only way we can get their attention is to haul them in. now we're at -- we were at miami community college today. across the street from the federal courthouse where last year in august i held a hearing in an empty courthouse, empty for five years, actually going on seven years, they knew it was going to be empty, costing the taxpayer millions of dollars a year to keep a vacant building in downtown miami, when you have a community college which should for after the hearing, they've been trying to get it for years and can't get gsa to result, so, the waste and across from that is the new

courthouse which we found out today is overbuilt by 48 million dollars, so, and part of that is vacant. it's appalling. >> i appreciate comments, but i've got to give you heat for one aspect of it. you're talking about the building across the street that was overbuilt and congress authorized a certain amount of money to build that courthouse and they overbuilt it and all sorts of taxpayers got something much more than congress had authorized, right? >> well, actually, the gao testified today that they built 97,000 square feet, more than congress authorized. >> let me stop there. >> what i'm trying to do is get to the bottom of who was responsible at gao said gsa did, built it. so they built it without authorization. >> congressman, here is what i don't understand. the job of the legislature, of congress, is oversight. where in the world were all of

you when the plans were to overbuild what you authorized? we're hearing about it, now it's too late. we pay for it, we built it, we got it, but you authorized it, you know, isn't it part of your job to make sure that you provide the oversight that you don't overbuild so the american people won't get put on the hook for something like this? >> absolutely, and some of the way the federal judges calculated, again, that they were going to add judges that need this space, sort of garbage in, garbage in to gsa and gsa talks advantage and builds a larger structure than you need and no one was at the gate. now, you've chaired this subcommittee for a few months, as you know, i chaired transportation that launched all of these investigations into 14,000 federal buildings or properties that are underutilized and i did that with the first one of the post office building, as you may recall, a couple of years ago.

the first hearing i held. interestingly enough, greta, that's now going to employ a thousand people. it's going to have a 400 room motel two blocks from the white house and have about 10 million in income rather than 10 million in loss. so we are trying to take these and i have to take them one at a time and go across the country, miami, washington, wherever. >> greta: well, you know, i certainly, you know, i'm a big fan of what you're doing on these buildings, no reason the american people should be paying for empty buildings or having buildings built bigger than what congress authorized and someone ought to take a look at gsa. if gsa is the one, they're the landlord for the buildings, right, and gsa, who could forget the conference they had to the tune of about a million dollars in vegas where the guys in the bathtub. >> the guy in the hot tub, yeah. >> greta: and that's the-- instead of checking to see what's going on with the buildings he's in the bathtub with two glasses i might ad, as i always do, they don't match. we're paying for wine glasses

and they don't match. that's my sarcasm. i wish that other members of congress have this appetite as you do to go after the empty building, it really is painful that-- here we talk about sequestration and we're just blowing money on things like this. >> well, it started, you know, i had limited jurisdiction as chairman of transportation and now i have more authority. went out to maryland, and we've got 7,000 acres, the size of the city of key west, and agricultural research center, i think the first member of congress other than the local ones to be there since 1930. 500 buildings on the property, 200 of them vacant. 7,000 acres prime real estate just outside the nation's capital. you ought it see that mess with the rows of vacant office buildings with vines growing over them and no one cares. >> greta: and i want to take the last word, worse yet we're building more buildings to house the federal government in different areas, go figure when we've got the empty

buildings we're already paying for. congressman thank you, i hope and i know you will stay on this topic. thank you, sir. >> thank you for bringing it to the public's attention. >> greta: are you viewers satisfied with our government oversight. are they doing their job or not? go to gretawire.com and tell us right now. strayed ahead president obama another deadline, another important one, which deadline and why is he missing it? that's next. and the bin laden son-in-law makes the first appearance in a federal are courtroom and g.o.p. blame the obama administration for making our nation less safe. and photos of governor chris christie you've never seen before. the photos will stun you, if nothing else. stick around and see the pi

weeks after when it was supposed to be here. >> all right, he's required by law to do it the first monday in february. >> he is required by law, and this is the fourth time out of the five budgets he has not hit that deadline. >> greta: in fairness i should point out 25 years ago president reagan was behind, didn't get his budget on time. it's not just the democratic president, but republicans presidents do the same thing? >> i think every president going back to lbj has missed a deadline once, some of them twice, so it is, even though required by law it is something that we see basically every president do. >> what's their excuse? >> well, right, today the white house blamed congress. >> and that's the fox news alert. and that surprised you, took you by surprise. surprised you a lot. >> it was congress's fault over the uncertainty in fiscal cliff in january, over the sequester. >> which one is the white house's idea in the first place? >> well, it's certainly, i don't think, i think we have you know, both, both sides here, i think, are going to, you know, have some blame here

in terms of the budget, interestingly, we're going to see budgets coming next week from both the house and the senate before the president's budget and that's the wrong way to do it it's normally the president puts out his budget and then the congress looks at it and then does their budget. this time, it's the other way around. >> greta: all right, the republican congressman paul ryan can get his budget out next week and democratic senator pat murray on behalf of the u.s.-- on behalf of the democrats, why can't the president get his in. >> many people in congress are wondering, this is a point that republicans have hit over and over again. if the president isn't serious about this he's not getting his budget. the democratic senate hasn't gotten a budget since 2009 and they are changing this and as we've seen from obama this is the fourth year out of five he hasn't put a budget out. >> you know, the federal budget is enormously complicated, but not as though it's a big surprise that's due or surprise that they could have had an alternate and not like there isn't a big staff to do it. >> sure, it's interesting because in past years, except

for the very first year, it was a week or two late. this time it's more than two months late and other presidents fallen into april and may and george w. bush and president clinton and both times did it when they were first going into office and this time, i mean, obviously the president has been in office. >> do you have any sense that the administration might be a tad bit embarrassed that the house and senate can get those ahead of them. >> if they do, certainly not showing it. we heard from the white house briefing, this is congress's fault, over the sequester and fiscal cliff, this is not our fault basically is what we're hearing. >> greta: jeremy, nice to see you. a high school student says she was punished and flunked for her patriotism, but that's not the way her teacher sees it. what sparked the fierce legal fight. and governor chris christie, what do the pictures show you have to see them to believe them and honestly you do not want to miss the pictures. stick around coming up. my insurance rates are probably gonna double.

friday. >> greta: happy friday to you, we're both working. should the spokesman for al-qaeda, the son-in-law, would he be in new york or you want him to gitmo, what do you think. >> gitmo, a naval vessel, guam, anywhere other than new york and anything other than a civilian trial. safety is one issue, convenience to otherwise innocent people who live and work near the u.s. district court, but the real significant difference, greta, are the differences in the way the two tribunals work. from the discovery standpoint, the way the jury system works. there is no jury at a tribunal, these are military officers. you don't have to have unanimous jury verdicts in tribunals. and the discovery is the thing that concerns me and i asked the attorney general specifically about it. >> greta: why do you think the obama administration elected to take it to new york and they knew about the

controversy before with the discussion of trying some of these people and what is their thinking in going to new york, and the federal court. >> i asked the attorney general about a year and a half ago that very question and among many limitations is an inability to read other people's minds, but i suspect that he wants to showcase our civilian criminal justice system. and that's great. we can do that trying somebody for bank robbery or we can do that trying somebody for drug trafficking. i'm more concerned about classified information. i mean, imagine this, greta, you're a very accomplished attorney. imagine he fires his attorneys and says i'm going to represent myself, give me the evidence there is, is there any guarantee that he's going to keep that discovery, some of which may be classified, from getting in the wrong hands? we've seen that happen before in civilian trials. so, why would we take that risk? >> well, it seems to me the

problem i've seen, i think that the judge and the u.s. district court, eastern district of virginia held one of these terrorist trials and did a very good job with the defendant who at one point wanted to represent himself. so, i mean, it can be done and there are ways to deal with national security with that kind of information, that can be done, but the big problem here was that once you mirandize him you lose the ability to question him and perhaps he would have exposed things about other terrorists networks or potential plans against the united states. that to me seems to be where the rubber hits the road. >> well, you pointed out another difference. you can actually listen in on conversations between defendants and their criminal attorneys, defense attorneys in tribunals, but you used the phrase it can be done. i don't disagree, it can be. the question i ask is, should it be? lots of things can be done, but they should not be done.

and if our only motivation, to show the world we have a criminal justice system and they he could like us, i'd just as soon do it on a naval vessel, the rules of evidence applies in military tribunals than in u.s. district court. what strikes me so peculiar about this discussion, congressman, is that senator rand paul had a filibuster on the senate floor and wanted the answer to the question whether or not the obama administration could use a drone to kill an american on american soil. he couldn't get an answer and after the filibuster he got kind of a snarky answer whether it could be done. and here a discussion killing an american with a drone without any trial whatsoever and at the same time we're having the discussion we're bringing someone from overseas and giving mimm a full set of rights and a trial with cross examination and lawyers and yet, there is a discussion about, they wouldn't even on up that you know, we're not

just going to kill someone without any trial. >> greta: you are a very good attorney, greta, because i thought to myself driving over to the studio tonight that the dichotomy between not being able to answer whether or not you can kill a u.s. citizen on u.s. soil, drinking coffee at a cafe, he answered that question horribly, but yet, we're going to try enemy combatants in a more favorable setting than the soldiers they're shooting at. i mean, keep in mind, soldiers don't get tried in civilian court. they don't get the full panoply of protection, three public defenders, the legal pads and access to a legal library. our soldiers don't get that. i don't know what this attorney general was thinking this week when he testified before the senate judiciary committee, but he took a very simple question and he turned it into a 13-hour filibuster. the answer to the question, mr. attorney general, is no, you cannot kill an american citizen who's drinking coffee in a cafe, the answer is no. >> greta: well, actually the

thing i didn't like about the attorney general is he waited until the filibuster was over and had the sort of snarky response, it's come to my attention, something. it doesn't come to his attention, he knew very well that the filibuster was going on about that question and i expected more of the attorney general than sort of petty response, but anyway, that's washington and congressman, thank you, sir. >> thank you, have a good weekend. >> greta: you, too, sir. what do you think the united states should do with terror suspects put them in military detention or try them in civilian courts? this is your chance, go to gretawire.com and vote in our poll. was a texas student flunked and punished for her patriotism. they're suing and he claims his daughter was punished for refusing for singing the mexican national anthem and the mexican pledge of allegiance. and the student told it was unamerican. >> good evening, nice to be
